AO 2013 SF: Murray vs Federer

I have done a very naughty thing, but Andy made me do it . Twisted my arm behind my back and everything he did, I am totally innocent of all blame . I bought the DVD of Andy's semi, and it is great. I watched it again last night, just to savour the feeling. I might get the other AO matches, but thought I'd get this one first, because I also wanted the Shanghai semi, and the final from Japan 2011. I'm clearly in the mood to watch Andy beating Federer and Nadal lol.

The DVD of the AO semi is Eurosport's coverage. On the day itself I watched the BBC, so it was interesting to get a different perspective. Funnily enough, I thought that Europsort made more out of the way Smugfed behaved than the BBC did.

I know someone alluded to it at the time, but it was great to hear Wilander say that Lendl said Andy is the most talented player he has ever seen, or words to that effect. What a fantastic seal of approval from Mr. L. It made me feel quite choked to hear it lol.

No stopping you tj. I think I've still got most of the SF on my hard disk courtesy of Eurosport replay but am planning to buy the DVD too as I'll have to wipe it sooner or later and I have a little list of previous matches I want to get too, to add to my growing collection. I blame you as I think it was you who gave us the website address where we could buy them

Great addition, tj. I myself watched the match a few times already (courtesy of YouTube). Would love to have the DVD version of it. Actually I am making a list of matches that I want to have in my collection and that one tops my list. It was an incredible match.

I've also watched quite a few matches of Andy these past few weeks. Both Shanghai semi and final, WTF RR vs Nole, AO Semi, Olympics final, Wimbledon Final and Semi and a few others that don't involve the top players. I wanted to get a feeling about Andy's game and see what needs to be done in order to achieve the ultimate success. I am fairly sure he still has a couple of gears left in him and has yet to fully peak. I really feel this is the year that should elevate him to that level. He still has a couple of things to sort though but next year should really be it if my calculations are right.

Good stuff! I saw the DVD of the US Open final on sale just before Christmas. Wish I'd asked Santa for it!

No stopping me at all, no, mind you, sometimes I wish I'd never discovered that website lol. I'm still deciding whether or not to get all of Andy's rounds at the AO. I might eventually, but I have it in mind to get all of Andy's Masters wins first. I've seen some of them, but some are from before I had Sky Sports, so they'd effectively be new to me, at least in terms of seeing them.

I recorded the AO semi, but due to - well, I don't know what, my Sky box didn't record the last set! I recorded it on the BBC, so I don't know what happened. Needless to say, the discovery of that missing last set made me swear, even though I'd already seen it.

Feel free to blame me lol, I think it was me who provided the details of that site. I just think it's a relatively cheap way of catching up with things a player has done. The official DVD's are all right, and I do have a few, but they aren't easy to get and they aren't cheap. I love the way that with that site you seem to be able to think of a match and it's there. I want to see if they have Andy's Wimbledon and Queen's matches from 2005, just for nostalgia's sake.
